Duke looked at Alden’s face first before he glanced at Melody.
In the past, he used to think about how great it would be if Melody was his biological daughter. He had thought about it more than once.
But it turned out that she really was his daughter.
No wonder he was not resistant toward Melody in the slightest. No wonder Melody called him “Daddy.”
“Mel, come to Daddy.”
Duke waved at her.
She moved out of her mother’s hand before she walked toward the bed.
She stared at Duke’s arm with her big eyes. His arm was wrapped in gauge, but some blood had oozed out. It looked a little scary.
She extended her soft finger and gently touched the wound before she blew on it. “Daddy, are you in pain?” she asked softly.
Duke’s heart melted. “No, I don’t feel any pain.”
He held the girl in his arms and looked at Alden who was standing at the door.
A long time ago, he had found that this boy looked like George. He used to think that they looked alike because they were cousins. Only now did he realize that they were biological brothers, and they were quadruplets.
He raised his arm and said in a low voice, “Alden, come here.”
Alden pursed his lips and slowly walked over before he lowered his head and said, “Uncle Duke.”
Duke raised his eyebrows. “Uncle Duke? Didn’t your mom tell you what to call me?”
Alden pursed his lips and clenched his fists.
He remained silent without answering.
“My dad even complimented you for being smart. You’re not very smart!” Harold scoffed and said, “You should call him ‘Dad.’ My dad’s your dad. You’re not as smart as me!”
Alden silently rolled his eyes at him.
